CARD OF THANKS.

To the Editor Daily Eagle.
Allow me through your valuable paper to
thank my friends. There are times when
language seems inadequate to express our
feelings and we stand in silence as if in some
august presence. l am not insensible to the
good opinions of my fellow citizens, and to
say that thank you from the bottom of my
heart for this magnificent present as token
of your confidence and esteem hut made
quately expresses my feelings. Whatever
effectiveness may have been gained by the
police force of this city, l am persuaded, is
due to the fact that we have not allowed any
petty jealousies to interfere with the dis
discharge OF our duties. and while it is q
source Of profound satisfaction to me to
know that have been able to perform the
duties assigned me in such manner as to
gain the approval of my own conscience,
and that of such valued citizens as your
selves. do not forget that without the aid
and assistance of his comrades, no member
of the Wichita police force can at all times
render effective service. Hoping that l may
be able in the future to do my whole duty,
and retain your good opinion, sincerely
thank you. DAN. f. PARKS

The case was tried before his honor, Justice Patterson. Plaintiff filed with his complaint an ac- count duly sworn to.

From private letters received we learn that J. V. Brighton, the man who shot and killed Ike Clanton some time since, has been arrested, and is in jail at Solo, monville, Graham county, charged with murder in connection with thls killing. We know nothing of the circumstances attending this affair, but have heard two stories with regard to it. The true facts will undoubtedly be brought out in the trial of Brighton. There were two wit nesses to the killing, We believe, and , they can scarcely differ very materially as to the circumstances leading to it.

RODEO NOTICE.

The Executive Committee of the Apache County Stock Association at its meeting held at Holbrook, on July 31st, arranged the rodeo as follows: The work will begin at the Meadows on September 9th, and work substan- tially as it was last year, viz: From Meadows over Wabash range to otwenty- four ranch; thence to Esquidilla noun tains, Mangus Springs, Cow Springs and Coyote, and continue on to the co range and thence down the Show Low. At the Meadows the work will be in charge of Mr. Henry Smith. On the Wabash range, MT. Young Jenkins will be Captain. From the Twenty-four ranch to the range of Tuning & Cooley, Mir. Bob Thomas will be Captain. From thence and down the Show Low, Mir. Juan Sepulveda, Captain.
 Going west from the Meadows along the Colorado river to Woodruff, Mir. Nat Greer will be Captain. From Woodruff on down the river, Mir. Ed. Rogers will take charge. At Holbrook Mir. Rodgers will divide his party, sending an outfit up the Puerco to, and beyond if neces- sary, Bennett's ranch; thence swing round by Tanner Springs, working the Lereux wash, over the X ranges, then down the Cottonwood to its mouth, join ing the other party at Clear Creek. The remainder of Mir. Rogers outfit will work down the river to Clear Creek, where, after joining party No. the en- tire outfit will work back between the creeks to the Verde road, then east through the mountains, via Milford, Phoenix Park and the Indian Tanks to Show Low.
 The Committee proposes to make this rodeo as thorough and careful as possi- ble, and to that end the attention of the various Captains is called to these sug- gestions:
 Work slowly and satisfy yourself and the men whose range you are on that you have seen all the stock, on it. There is no need of rushing the work at all.
 Consult with the men who control the range over which you work, and work according to their desires and conve- nience as much as possible.
 Brand every calf you can, no matter to whop~it belongs. This Association proposes to put stop to "mavericking" if it can be done, and the Committee believes that by branding every calf found, it will greatly decrease the num- Der of mavericks, and thus lessen the temptation to steal.
 Keep careful record of such brands, and in case you find no owner to report them to, send the brand and tally in to the Secretary of the Association, and they will be advertised in the HERALD.
 And finally set squarely down on horse racing and gambling.
 By order of the Executive Committee.

 Vice-Pres and Chairman.

According to the St. Johns Herald the Apache county officials are a pack of thieves. More developments are pro- phesied regarding certain steals.-Salt River Valley News.
 How the News has managed to twist anything that has ever appeared in the HERALD into such shape, is more than We can see. There has never been a word uttered, or a sentence written, against any of the present officials of this county. The HERALD has said more than once that Apache county has as good a set of officials as can be found in this or any ether State or Territory in the Union. The party or parties refer red to in the squibs Bhieh have appear ed in this paper are ex-oficials whose terms of office expired last January.

The three men reported killed in Ton to Basin, Tucker, Gillespie and Payne, had been in the employ of the Aztec Cattle Company for some time. We un- derstand MT. Simpson, the local mana ger, had determined to do all Tn his power to break up the band of horse and cattle thieves who had been preying on the people in the western part of this county for so long time, and to that end called all the men together in the employ of that company. When they were assembled he told them it was the intention of the company to take an ac- tive part ill trying to stop so much steal ing, and wanted the help of all the em- ployees of the ecompany-that those who were not willing to assist them and the authorities in this work, could call for theIr time. All agreed'to do what they could except five, who took their money and left. The three above named were of tho party who took their time. It appears they put their liberty to bad use and enjoyed it but a short time.
